  • Course description
    Fashion and home furnishings fabrics are a major part of the multibillion-dollar global textile industry, from organic cotton to bamboo to high-tech performance fabrics for extreme sports like snowboarding. There’s a growing demand for professionals who can develop, produce, and market the right textiles at the right price, while ensuring that production meets quality and legal standards. The emerging markets present more opportunities for those with a global perspective. TDM graduates work with the industry's most famous designers and product developers, and the companies that produce and market their products around the world.

    Highlights
    • New York City, with its vast creative and commercial resources, is your extended campus—offering  internships , field trips, guest lectures, and industry-sponsored projects make strong industry connections through the faculty and the department’s close ties to alumni and industry leaders.
    • This technologically innovative major includes one of the country’s strongest knitting and weaving programs, featuring Stoll knit-and-wear technology and jacquard hand looms, used to create intricate tapestries.
